QUILTED JACKET ZIP UP FOR WOMEN

Slip into this jacket zip up piece on a crisp morning and feel the box-quilted panels settle close around you, the high stand collar sealing out the wind at the neck. It goes with you from the school run to a weekend market, giving a straight, hip-length shape that sits well over everything else in your closet.

The full front zip means you can adjust it in seconds, while the padded quilting adds warmth without adding bulk to your frame. Side pockets give you a place for your phone, keys or gloves, and the matte finish keeps the whole piece clean rather than shiny or overdone.

Reach for it through autumn and into the depths of winter, layered over a knit and a pair of jeans for a set-up that carries you through a full day outdoors. It sits at the hip, so it works equally well tucked under a coat on the coldest days or worn alone once the temperature lifts.

A jacket like this earns its place in a wardrobe because it solves a real problem: staying warm without piling on layers that weigh you down. Pick this one and you get a piece you'll pull out season after season.

Machine wash cold, hang dry.
